Redo of Easy Rider

[bulldurham]

I remade the negative increasing the contrast in the mid-tones. I toned this one in Green Tea followed by a quick wash in instant coffee. This one features a lot more detail. Surprisingly, the biggest issue I overcame was exposure time. Prior to this print, I was exposing for 15-20 minutes. This one was 3 minutes. Go figure, eh?

Aesthetically speaking the motorcycle is very cool looking. The rider is far from that though...

The cyan above looks good, looks like sky.

Isn't it interesting how the tones went more pinkish with these modifications? I love this - but I love the first one, too.

Love this rider, the bike, dust, all of it. Dramatic and fun!

It's so similar to doing lith printing, getting different color shifts not just from paper to paper but as the toner gets multiple uses.

Well done!
